The show promoter has explained why Kizz Daniel refused to perform at a paid concert in Tanzania.

The “Buga” crooner was scheduled to perform at a well-publicised concert at Warehouse, Old Nextdoor Arena, Tanzania on Sunday but failed to show up.

Fans of the singer were forced to wait until 6 am for a live performance but Kizz Daniel was absent.

The singer was reported to have arrived in the country earlier but refused to perform because of unavailability of his clothes.

But in an Instagram Live session with Daddy Freeze after the news of the singer’s arrest by the Tanzanian police went viral, the show promoter, identified Steve claimed Vado refused to perform because the luggage containing his other gold chain was delivered.

According to Uwah, although Kizz had a gold chain on his neck, yet he refused to perform because the airline had failed to deliver his luggage that contained his other gold chains; insisting he must wear all of it for the show.

 

He noted his manager, Paulo called the singer from America, crying while begging him all night to honour the show but he refused to bulge.

Explaining reason for Kizz Daniel’s refusal to perform at the concert to Daddy Freeze, Uwah stated: “He only said the airline did not bring his bag, that is why he cannot perform because his gold chain is not there and he had a good chain on his neck, one but he wanted everything.”

“And I brought him harmonised skin. I brought in different clothes. So, he said just because the airline didn’t bring one of his bags, he cannot perform without his gold on his neck.

“That show, I spent nothing less than $300,000 because the show was a premium show. I’ll send you a video of that show. That show wasn’t a joke. A table for that show was sold for $5,000 and the highest table was sold for $10,000.

“I have all the contract with Paulo. Paulo is the one who I booked Kizz Daniel directly from.

“Paulo cried all night calling from America trying to beg this guy saying, ‘please go for the show’s, but he refused.”

When I went to Jay-office Z’s to sell myself, they actually sold me to myself instead — Sarkodie

Sarkodie speaks about his first encounter with Beyoncé

Sarkodie, the multiple award-winning Ghanaian hip-hop singer, has revealed his experience at Jay-Z’s Office (Rock Nation).

He said he was shocked by the experience.

Sarkodie’s appearance on the Podcast With MacG in Nigeria on Tuesday, June 21, 2022, revealed more facts about himself and the Ghanaian entertainment industry, with the latest being how Jay-Z’s team narrated his musical journey to himself.

He stated that his first visit to the Rock Nation was intended to preach to them about himself, but shortly after his arrival, they began telling him about his works and even others he had never heard of before.

“I went to Rock Nation, Jay-Z’s office, I thought I was going to sell myself not knowing they already know me. They were giving me a whole breakdown of myself… Even stuff I didn’t have. I kept quiet because I was going to sell myself, but they ended up selling me to myself,” he stated

Before Sarkodie’s revelation about his awesome experience at Jay-Z’s office, he repeated what Nigerian rapper Ice Prince said about his (Sarkodie’s) meeting with Beyoncé at the 2012 BET awards.

According to him, the American songstress walked toward him, but because of how surprised he was, he didn’t notice it until she shook her head and walked back.

Sarkodie further stated that that experience was something he didn’t want to discuss in Ghana because he knew no one was going to believe that.

“There was a funny story that happened, till date, I haven’t dared to share it, but Ice Prince came to Ghana and shared it. When I come to Ghana and share this story, there is no way they gonna believe me.

“I was sitting at the BET on the aisle, and we have Beyoncé and her crew coming, and she saw me and stood right in front of where I was sitting, and she bowed her head. I was thinking it wasn’t me, and so I was looking behind,” he stated.

Then Ice Prince said was you and she just shook her head and just walked off. So, when I saw her do this new project with a lot of African artists, I was like these guys kinda know what is actually happening,” he revealed.

Burna Boy’s bodyguards shoot a married man after the singer made a pass at his wife.

Read Time:2 Minute, 38 Second

The Lagos State Police Commissioner’s Special Squad has arrested five police officers associated with singer Damini Ogulu, aka Burna Boy, for attempted murder after they shot two revelers—Irebami Lawrence and another identified simply as Tolu—at Club Cubana on Victoria Island in Lagos on Wednesday.

According to a preliminary report by the Bar Beach Police Division, trouble started when the singer and five police escorts visited the nightclub around 4am on June 8.

About four policemen waited outside while one of the policemen, identified as Inspector Ibrahim, who was in mufti, accompanied the Grammy-Award-winning artiste into the club.

According to multiple witness statements, the singer was in the VIP section with three women when he spotted another woman.

He was reported to have told Ibrahim to invite the woman to join him.

However, the lady’s husband was said to have lambasted the singer, insisting that it was disrespectful for any man to make advances at his wife.

After some minutes, Burna Boy reportedly made fresh advances at the woman.

This infuriated her husband further and his friends who had gathered at the club.

“As things were getting heated, Ibrahim brought out his service pistol and shot multiple times while Burna Boy was laughing,” said a senior policeman.

In the process, 27-year-old Lawrence was shot in the thigh while his friend, Tolu, was hit in the head by a bullet. This caused a commotion in the club.

It was learnt that Burna Boy and his crew then drove off to one of his properties at the Elegushi end of the Lekki-Epe Expressway before leaving for Lekki Phase 1.

“Aware of what he had done, Burna Boy took the next flight out without even informing the policemen. He only made a video call to them to inform them that he had travelled to Spain. All his police escorts have been arrested and are currently at the Command headquarters,” said a top source at the office of the Lagos State Commissioner of Police.

Sources close to the victims said the police were already making attempts to protect Burna Boy because of his status while the victims were treating their wounds at the Lagos State University Teaching Hospital, Ikeja.

Jide added that Irebami, who is based in the United States of America, arrived in Nigeria a week ago for a wedding.

He also berated the management of Club Cubana for not doing enough to forestall the situation, adding that the club management had not even reached out to the family since the incident occurred.

He also berated the management of Club Cubana for not doing enough to forestall the situation, adding that the club management had not even reached out to the family since the incident occurred.

Attempts to get a response from Burna Boy’s manager, Mrs Bose Ogulu, who is also his mother, proved abortive as she neither responded to calls nor a text message on Saturday.

Similarly, Chioma Nwachukwu, a media consultant for Cubana, did not respond to calls on Saturday.

But the Spokesman for the Lagos State Police command, Benjamin Hundeyin, said the focus of the investigation was the policemen.

Photo Of Nigerian Afrobeat singer Fela Kuti Rocking Burna Boy’s Mother On Stage Surface

0 0
Read Time:2 Minute, 34 Second

A photo of legendary Nigerian Afrobeat singer Fela Kuti with one of his dancer rocking on stage during a performance has surfaced online. The photo caught our attention not because of the compromising position Baba Fela was caught in with his stage dancer but because of the identity of the dancer.

Apparently Bose Ogulu has been in the entertainment scene longer than we anticipated. As a photo of her has surfaced with Nigerian own King of Afro pop, Fela Kuti.  In the photo, Bose Ogulu, could be seen lying stomach flat on stage while king of afro pop, Fela Kuti was on her, rocking her backside with his joystick.

Fela is known to have had sexual escapades back in his days. Fela Kuti, the creator of Afrobeat, is know by many as “the man who married 27 wives”. On 18 February 1978 he married the entire female entourage of his band in a ceremony conducted by a Yoruba priest.

Many may be wondering who Bose Ogulu is, why did she catch our fancy? For those of us that dont know who Bose Ogulu is, Bose is the mother and manager of our very own king of Afro pop, Burna Boy – the real rave of the moment, internationally recognized best African artiste 2019.

Not many people know this, but Burna Boy could have been Fela’s son if nature had permitted a turn of events. This is because Burna Boy’s mother, Bose Ogulu was one of Fela’s dancers in the 80s and everyone knows what Fela does to his dancers! Yes, he gets them pregnant and sometimes marries them.

However, we can not lay claim to the possibility of that happening as Bose reacting to the rumour that has been circulated about her; been a dancer for Fela Kuti. she said, “”How could I have danced for him? Chronologically, it doesn’t add up…when did I dance for Fela?”

Bose Ogulu, one time dancer of the creator of Afrobeat Fela Kuti is now the mother of king of Afrobeat (arguably).

A photo of Bose Ogulu and Fela in a very serious position has emerged which suggests that Burna Boy’s mother was more than just a dancer for Fela. Checkout the photo below:

 

Here are a few facts you should know about the sensational Bose Ogulu:

1. Bose Ogulu is the daughter of Benson Idonije, a veteran broadcaster, and music critic. He is also famed for being the first band manager of the legendary Fela Anikulapo Kuti.

2. She managed Burna Boy’s career for a few years before he revealed, in 2014, that he had fired. Although, it is not clear if she is back to managing him or not.

3. She has a Bachelors of Arts in foreign languages; she is fluent in French, Italian, German, Yoruba, and English.

4. She also has a Master of Arts in translation and has worked as a translator for the Federation of West African Chambers of Commerce.

5. Bose Ogulu taught French for 10 years at the University of Education in Port Harcourt.

Pitt claims Jolie intended ‘harm’ by selling her vineyard stake to a Russian oligarch.

0 0
Read Time:1 Minute, 35 Second

Brad Pitt has accused his ex-wife Angelina Jolie of attempting to “harm” him by selling her half stake in their French vineyard to a Russian oligarch with “poisonous associations and intentions.”

The allegations, made in new court filings as part of Pitt’s lawsuit against Jolie over the sale of Chateau Miraval, are the latest salvo in the former Hollywood power couple’s bitter legal battle, which began in 2016.

Pitt sued in February, saying the couple had agreed never to sell their interests without the other’s consent, and accusing Jolie of seeking “unearned” profits.

In an amended complaint seen by AFP, Pitt’s lawyers argue “Jolie sought to inflict harm on Pitt” with the sale, and describe Shefler as “a stranger with poisonous associations and intentions.”

The filing received by a Los Angeles court last Friday alleges Shefler “maintains personal and professional relationships with individuals in Vladimir Putin’s inner circle.”

Shefler has long been an outspoken critic of Putin, and his Stoli Group drinks conglomerate is based in Latvia.

In March, following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, Shelfer issued a statement saying he has been “exiled from Russia since 2002 due to my opposition to Putin,” and rebranded his company in “solidarity with Ukraine.”

But Pitt’s latest filing says: “Despite Shefler’s desperate attempt to disassociate himself from the Putin regime, the Stoli brand is now a massive international liability.”

It adds: “Stoli vodka is synonymous with Russia, as the countless images of consumers pouring Stoli vodka down the drain make clear.”

“Since Russia’s February 2022 invasion of Ukraine, Miraval’s insurer has sought assurances that Shefler is not aligned with Putin and that affiliation with Stoli would not create commercial risk,” the filing says.

The complaint also lists Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman within Shefler’s alleged “network of ill-reputed professional associates” which “threatens lasting harm to Miraval’s reputation.”

Read Time:1 Minute, 19 Second

Justin Bieber has been forced to postpone his upcoming tour dates due to a mysterious illness.

The Peaches singer is currently on his massive Justice world tour in support of his number-one album of the same name.

His most recent performance was on Sunday in Detroit, and he was scheduled to resume his tour on Monday with two nights at New York City’s prestigious Madison Square Garden. However, Justin announced that he will be unable to perform his next set of shows.

‘Can’t believe I’m saying this,’ the 28-year-old singer said in an Instagram story to fans. I’ve tried everything to get better, but my illness is worsening. My heart breaks knowing that I will have to cancel the next few shows (doctors orders).

‘I love you all so much, and I’m going to rest and get better.’

It is unknown what ailment Justin has, but it is thought to be unrelated to Covid. He may also be forced to cancel his tour stop in Philadelphia on June 16 at the Wells Fargo Center.

Justin isn’t the only one in his family to have fallen ill recently as his wife, Hailey Bieber, also suffered a medical incident. 

The 25-year-old model was having breakfast with Justin when she started to feel unwell and temporarily lost the ability to speak as she began experiencing stroke-like symptoms.

In a recent YouTube video, Hailey explained that she had experienced a ‘really weird sensation’ which travelled from her shoulder, all the way down to her arm and into her fingertips.
